Beware the Ides of March

Not every March 15th is bad of course, but as a former superstitious baseball player, I wish there were more readers of Shakespeare in Iraq. Grand Ayatollah Ali al-Sistani is promising (via GOP Bloggers)a new government by the 15th. All in all, positive news. I believe Rich Lowry said at The Corner shortly after the elections that Iraqi politics were probably going to be rough and tumble, with a lot getting hammered out right at deadlines, when no one thinks a consensus is possible. Hopefully those words will be prophetic come the Ides of March.

Update
Lowry on Iraq (from The Corner).
